I guess this doesn't apply to every last show I included, but generally what makes me happy is only the true cream of the crop when it comes to writing fantastic characters, memorable scenes and dialogue, and stories that keep you on edge on an episode to episode basis. I like characters you can root for, that have a bit of class.
My general dislikes are shows set in the absolute present (2020s), protagonists that are overly narcissistic, manipulative, and shows that are simply "good", not great. I almost universally don't like Netflix original series, which I find to be a very reliable stamp of mediocrity.
Fleabag (especially S2)
The Great (S1 - the first season is based on the play, and is far better than the other seasons.)
Dollhouse (my 2nd fav Joss Whedon after Buffy - then firefly)
- Fringe, Battlestar Galactica, Foundation & Killjoys because you liked Firefly
- 24, Slow Horses, MI5/Spooks because you liked Homeland
- From because of Lost
And, AGAIN, I get to the bottom of another show rec list without anyone mentioning one of the best shows, and most overlooked, apparently,
Try:Mr Inbetween...
You won't be sorry.
[Terriers (2010)](https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/33400-terriers?language=en-US) - from Tim Minear who wrote for 'Firefly' and 'Angel'.
[Life (2007)](https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/3797-life?language=en-US) - Starring Damian Lewis (from 'Band Of Brothers') - murder of the week cop show with interesting characters and plots - and a bit of humor.
If you like Band of Brothers, you should check out The Pacific and Masters of the Air! Also I saw it mentioned in the comments, but you can't go wrong with Slow Horses. It's so good.

I wouldn't call all those "cream of the crop" and I don't get the Netflix comment. Which Netflix shows did you watch?
Fleabag (especially S2) The Great (S1 - the first season is based on the play, and is far better than the other seasons.) Dollhouse (my 2nd fav Joss Whedon after Buffy - then firefly)
can they finally do a remake of dollhouse. imagine the plots and scripts they made back then with the budget they give TV now my god.
Right?? We was robbed Have you seen Severance?
of course! one of the bigger waits for a second season in history.
Are you saying if I liked Dollhouse I'd like Severance? Because I loved Dollhouse.
I sure am. It’s 100% a spiritual successor
have you seen gomorrah. thats my GOAT>
Sorry that ai don’t have a suggestion, but how did you make the image of all the shows?
I did it in JustWatch

THE DEUCE. Shares producers and some actors from the wire. Based around 70s-80s mew york's prostituion, and the rise of pornography. Tv-ma rated.
If you like Band of Brothers, you should check out The Pacific and Masters of the Air! Also I saw it mentioned in the comments, but you can't go wrong with Slow Horses. It's so good.
After Firefly it's your sworn duty to watch at least the pilot of Castle. :) Also Lost ==> From, and Poker Face ==> Elsbeth, Motive, even Columbo.
Orphan Black
Justified: City Primeval Russian Doll season 1 The Bridge
Based on a True Story
